Why Reynoldsburg Is Columbus's Best Value for Homebuyers

Reynoldsburg offers some of the best real estate value on Columbus's east side. With a median home price of $305,000, well below the metro average, buyers get more house for their money here than in neighboring suburbs like Gahanna, New Albany, or New Albany.

The city's diversity, access to Blacklick Woods, growing restaurant scene, and direct highway access to downtown make it increasingly attractive to young professionals and families alike. New construction in neighborhoods like Maplewood North and Woods at Reynoldsburg is attracting move-up buyers, while established areas like Taylor Ridge and Briarcliff offer solid resale values.

The Reynoldsburg City School District's innovative academy programs are drawing families who want educational options without private school costs. And with the Bhutanese-Nepali community making up nearly 20% of the population, Reynoldsburg has a cultural richness that few other Columbus suburbs can match.

Bottom line: Whether you're buying or selling in Reynoldsburg, affordability and diversity are financial assets that set this market apart. I'd love to run a free market analysis for you.

What's Happening in Reynoldsburg: 2026 Update

Reynoldsburg is in the middle of a growth surge, and 2026 is shaping up to be a big year for the community.

Diversity Drives Demand. Reynoldsburg's cultural diversity continues to be a major draw for homebuyers. The city's international restaurant scene including Nepali, Ethiopian, Filipino, and Mexican spots along Main Street attracts residents from across the country. The annual Diwali-Tihar Festival hit 15,000 attendees in 2024 and keeps growing.

New Construction Booming. Builders like D.R. Horton continue to invest in Reynoldsburg with new communities offering modern floor plans from the $280s to $500s. Maplewood North, Willow Reserve, and other developments are bringing fresh inventory to a market that needs it.

Blacklick Woods Expansion. The 800+ acre Blacklick Woods Metro Park remains one of the most popular green spaces in Central Ohio. With walking and biking trails, a nature center, and a 72-hole golf course, it's a major quality-of-life asset for residents.

What This Means for Real Estate. New construction, growing cultural amenities, and continued population growth are pushing property values upward in Reynoldsburg. Homes in established neighborhoods near Blacklick Woods and along the Main Street corridor are seeing increased buyer interest. If you've been waiting to buy, the window for maximum value is now.

My take: Reynoldsburg is becoming one of the most compelling value plays on Columbus's east side. Affordable prices, diverse community, and a location that can't be beat.
